Hey everybody, Andy here. This is my page to write up a little bit about me and why I’m running the marathon.
I’m running the race in honor of my mother, Susan Milk, who is an 8-year breast cancer survivor.
She’s been fighting cancer for over 8 years now and continues to every day. She’s a beautiful and amazing woman and her strength has inspired me to train for the next 6 months to run 26.2 miles to raise money for cancer research.
I ran back in 2005 for Dana Farber and I raised over $4000 through personal and corporate donations, and a very successful benefit show. Many local businesses donated items for the raffle, airtime, newspaper ads, and transportation to make the benefit show a success. You can read more about it and see pictures at these sites:

Jen and I are planning some events like this one and we’ll keep you updated on them.
Cheers,
Andy
